Stacking the Shelves #95

Stacking The Shelves is all about
sharing the books you are adding to your shelves, may it be physical
or virtual. This means you can include books you buy in physical store
or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books,
gifts and of course ebooks! Click on the link under the book to find its page on Goodreads or Smashwords.

Please note that I always leave a
message on your STS/SP if you visit me, but if you use
DISQUS or a similar third party I will not be able to leave a comment on your page. And
sometimes,
I have problems leaving messages on blogs hosted by
Wordpress so you might get a double message sometimes! Blame them, not me!

This was a very productive week for me! I got a bit of reading done, I watched a few films (which I have still to review), managed to get some book reviews posted on my blog along with a few regular posts and I got a few things done around the house. I feel as if I got the balance right this week, which is good. I also *ahem* ordered a few books from Amazon which have not yet arrived so that will be in next week's haul.

A small haul this week then-two books from the charity shop, and a book sent to me to review by the lovely Ken Mooney. I loved his debut novel Godhead, which is urban and dark fantasy with Greek mythology and a bit of X Men superheroes! It's a great book so why not give it a try? I'm doing a re-read of Godhead and then following it up with two short stories recently released before going to read the new release The Hades Contract. So looking forward to it!

I was also nominated for a blog award this week by the lovely Amy from A Novel Start and I decided to take part in it for a change. I liked answering the questions but I regret that this will be the only award I can accept at The Book Cave because I struggled to find ten blogs to nominate and I hope those I contacted weren't annoyed at me choosing them! I'm not very good at this kind of thing...!

Oh sounds like it was great week for you and you found the right balance. It's great when weeks go like that.

I appreciate the awards, but always have trouble finding time to post them and indeed nominating ten other blogs is also hard. I might have to close my blog to awards eventually. I hope you have another great week!

Hi Chuckles!Yeah I felt exactly the same about the award. I was worried it'd be viewed more as spam-mail, you know? I struggled to find ten as well, should be less really... maybe 5, don't you think?Anyway... you BOUGHT books?!! I'll let you off for good behaviour lol. We need a treat every now and then :PHave a great week!Amy x

Remember, there's no blog police to come get you if you can't find 10 people for the tag. LOL I received this one also, Andy Amy is so sweet, always visiting and commenting, so I decided to do it. But everyone I felt comfortable tagging either had already done it or had a message that they don't accept awards, so I didn't tag anyone and left it up to readers to follow up if they choose.

Now I wish I'd thought of an open tag! I might do that in the future if I get any more nominations for blog awards...it lets me take part without having to worry about tagging people. Good thinking Elizabeth!
